We are honored and at the same time humbled by their trust in us over the years as we slowly built on this vision to establish the show as a sourcing show that completes the entire supply chain for various other industries as well. Now that thousands of buyers visit the PackPrintPlas Philippines expo each year, we can only strive to do better. This year’s event is surely going to be one to remember as we mark this very important milestone. BIGGEST EVER!”
